It is, therefore, hard to compare the years in question to get an exact picture, but I would have thought that with the setting up of the new Department and the link to the CAO, there would have been a bigger increase in the number of apprenticeships. This needs to be examined to determine what else needs to be done, including by way of additional career guidance, which should be provided anyway. There should be sufficient investment in career guidance right across this island. Even from speaking to some of the young people in the North, I have concluded this. There is not a full appreciation of the return we would get from proper career guidance.
